White Oleander because I love how sensitively it describes Astrid's change from an innocent artistic girl to a broken, cold person, caused by all the misery and pain she goes through. Argh, I could actually ramble about this movie's awesomeness for hours but I suppose the answers are supposed to be brief here :P

To be honest, I can't really decide which one. It changes from time to time, so I am gonna name those that fascinate me the most.

Japanese studies, including esp the language and Japanese social studies. Sometimes I think it's the biggest mistake of my life I didn't keep on studying it, although it might have wrecked me. Japan is a gorgeous country with so many different aspects, a truly interesting history and those quirks and weirdnesses we all know because the internet spreads them - and I guess I could ramble on and on about the things that captivate me this much, so I leave it with that, otherwise it's going to be a novel...

Abnormalisms - Hydrocephaly, Anencephaly, Acephaly ... Well, it's kinda creepy, and I have to admit I am a sucker for ooky-spooky things. But it's also just shocking what unintensional mistakes nature makes sometimes and which things result from it.For me it is a proof that even something so seemingly perfect like evolution has its fails.
